Crossing my fingers, and everything else!

I've been having problems with nerve entrapment and other issues on the bike, and this is on my lovely unique 1-off custom Gunnar that was made FOR ME. There really isn't another bike just like her anywhere. We know my fit is correct, my fitter has been very thorough about checking every little detail - and I've had this bike a couple of years now. That leaves two possibilities - my posture on the bike is causing problems with my compromised neck or this is the new normal.

This afternoon I am going for a ride with my fitter so he can check my positioning when I am actually riding and not in his fit studio. Really hoping that this is position related - I can DO something about THAT! Send me good wishes...and we will see how things go this afternoon. If nothing else, it is a nice afternoon for a bike ride :)

Good luck!

We had a nice little ride :) It is ALWAYS good to be on the bike! He did have a couple of ideas, but the first order is to see what my chiropractor/shoulder specialist thinks this week. My fitter didn't see much wrong, outside of my wanting to lock out an elbow (yes, on THAT side), and occasionally THAT shoulder was lower than my other shoulder but it wasn't consistent. It is possible that I simply need to be even more upright than what I currently am, but it is too soon to decide that.

It was a nice afternoon for a ride :)
